Your Next Mission Season #6 EP 61 | Generational Service to National Policy: D’Juan Wilcher, Life After the Service

After 14 years as a U.S. Navy Surface Warfare Officer, LCDR (R) Wilcher transitioned his leadership from the bridge of warships to the forefront of national Veteran policy. Today, as Deputy Director of the Veteran and Military Family Program at the George W. Bush Institute, D'Juan is championing cross-sector solutions to transform Veteran higher education, boost economic mobility, and expand mental health care access for post-9/11 Veterans and their Families. Joined by host SMA (R) Jack L. Tilley, D'Juan breaks down how we can bridge the civilian-military divide, empower student Veterans on college campuses, and build sustainable pathways for successful transition.
